He was born on 17 September 1941 in Berlin-Kaulsdorf, the second son of the publisher and bookseller Helmut Brandt and Elise Brandt (née Stümpfle). From October 1961 to June 1967 he studied physics at the University of Stuttgart and the Technical University of Berlin and the Free University of Berlin. In 1969, he prepared a doctoral thesis under Professor Alfred Seeger at the Max Planck Institute for Metals Research and the University of Stuttgart. From December 1969 to October 1970, he was a visiting scientist at the Lomonosov University in Moscow.
